    No, It will not be close to 15+, Should be about 7.75 for a 16 oz and 8.75 for a 20 oz / or 12 oz - 16 oz for the prices I listed for surly, so about right for a brew at the Twins game and IMO fair, Not sure about the other guy's

    From my little research i THINK the sizes are 12oz and 20oz(some conflicting info out there). If thats the case, the 20oz Surly is about twenty cents less per ounce. Interesting to note that just two years ago at Target Field, draft beers were $6/7 for domestic. They are now $7.25/8.25-quite a jump.

    Official pricing posted on Surly's FB just now.

    Our beer cart has arrived at Target Field and we spent some time "testing" it out this afternoon. It's located down the third base line, in section 124, and beers will be $7.75 for a 20 oz pour and $8.75 for a 24 oz pour. Surly will also be available in the 573 Bar, which is in the Legends Club. Let's play beer!

    I had emailed Target field the other day to ask about how many ounces in the sizes. They told me 12oz for 7.75 and 20oz was 8.75. Not sure what to think now!

    Surly Brewing Company
    Today, Surly starts pouring beer at Target Field and we will have rotating varieties throughout the 2012 Minnesota Twins season. That will include Cynic, Bender, Coffee Bender, Bitter Brewer, and Hell. It will not include Furious, unfortunately. Because of shortages on specific hops and an already long waiting list for the beer, we couldn't commit to getting Furious to Target Field this season. But, it's a unique opportunity so we wanted to do a unique beer. That's why we brewed a special beer for the 2012 season, which will be exclusive to Target Field.

    Introducing Bandwagon, a West Coast India Pale Ale. This IPA is brewed with pale and crystal malts, centennial and chinook hops, and fermented with English ale yeast. Bandwagon is pale gold in color and has flavors of caramelly biscuits slathered in pineapple-orange marmalade.

    Bandwagon. Jump on, Get Surly!

    Here is what Surly posted on their FB wall in reguards to the beer's they'll have at Target Field this summer

    I think I'll be more excited to try Bandwagon than I will be to see the Twins the first game I go to this year.

    I'm surprised that Mothman wasn't at the game so that he could be the first to tick Bandwagon

    Is Bandwagon currently on tap? I hope so - with how the Twins look, I need something to look forward to for Wednesday, lol...

    Line was fun- waited 45 minutes and got to the front to find out they only take cash. Got nothing.Awesome. Did talk to Todd while in line, so that was good.

    when the 'sconnies come to town for the Twins/Brewers, the line for Surly will be a minimum of 4 hours

    I got a nice tall 24oz pour of the bandwagon. Target Field made some major improvements to concessions this year and I think this is one of the biggest upgrades. If you have 15 minutes to kill (in line), it's worth the wait.
